Spike's Bitches 44: It's about the rules having changed.  

[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

Mostly lurking...

Shir, does she have a therapist of some sort? You may want to gently persuade her to utilize her therapist more...

"And that's why God Almighty gave us fire insurance and the public defender".

She sees a psychologist once a week.

I’m responsible for my own happiness? I can’t even be responsible for my own breakfast! (Bojack Horseman)

OMG, it is so beautiful outside and I am so unmotivated to work on this paper!

I'm nearly done with mine, but I find it hard to reread and edit it for the last time. It might be only 2 pages long, but it's 2 pages of criticism about Baudrillard. I can't keep up with my own thoughts. Meh.

Edit: actually, that was easier and quicker than I thought.

Mine needs to be 25 pages and I'm just on page 2.

Our wings are not tired.

I have no papers to write, but lots of other work to accomplish. This board is not really very helpful with the procrastination today.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

Mine needs to be 25 pages and I'm just on page 2.

I like to sneak up on the big ones. Outline, quotes, cites, topic sentence. Paraphrase main ideas. By the time you've done all that framework the thing is more than half way done.

So true!

BTW, Shir, I didn't mean to sound like I was trying to one-up you, I am just in some amount of despair about getting this done. My goal is to crank out 5 pages by the time I knock off today. Then 10 pages tomorrow. Then finish up next weekend.

Yep, good strategy. I am really trying to get myself maneuvered into that position but it is sort of eluding me. I should have taken notes while reading my sources, that would have been helpful.

Don't worry, Nora, I certainly didn't read it like that.
